I have worked in this field for over 15 years. I have a Masters Degree in Psychology and several certifications. I have worked beside some of the best LMHP's and I have worked beside some that I have had to help because they were unprepared. I do feel that the QMHP should be respected as a step down from a LMHP. I am not taking anything away from the LMHP's, but I do feel that QMHP needs to be recognized.
